Tetar van Elven, J.E. (1832-59). Atelier legacy

(1) Two flowers. Pencil. 9 x 8 cm (sheet). Relief stamp of 'J. Eduard Tetar van Elven/ Artiste peintre à Amsterdam' and his signature in ink on verso. (2) Attributed to Tetar van Elven. 6 pencil drawings of faces, landscapes and hands. Average size sheet approx. 15 x 10 cm. (3) Approx. 150 engravings, lithogr. and other prints. Most cut out from books or magazines, some might be original prints made for or by Tetar van Elven. Almost all w. the aforementioned relief stamp and almost all w. Tetar van Elven's name or signature in ink on verso (some seemingly in a later hand). Many of the prints have contemporary inscriptions and names in pencil on the verso. Recurring names are: Gosschalk, Henriette Boelens, Johannes Perk and especially (Marie) Fustner. Added: 16 drawings of landscapes and human figures. Pencil. Average sheet size approx. 25 x 20 cm. Possibly by Tetar van Elven but style and technique different than the above. One landscape sheet has on the verso: '1 maart 1800' and possibly 'Fustner' (writing partly cut off). Possibly to be attributed to Marie Fustner, a friend of Tetar van Elven? Unable to trace a female Dutch artist from this period with this name.
